連接無線網路

若您有將電腦的無線網路開啟，便能連接周遭的無線網路來存取網際網路，也能檢視網路上的共用檔案等。

  1. 開啟頂端列左上角的「系統選單」。

  2. 選擇「無線網路未連接」便能開啟 Wi-Fi 選擇列表。

  3. 點一下「選擇網路」。

  4. 點一下您欲連接的網路名稱並按下「連接」。

    若沒看見欲連接的網路，可以捲動列表來尋找。倘若您依舊找不到網路，可能是因為超出了無線網路訊號範圍，或是網路為隱藏狀態。

  5. If the network is protected by a password (encryption key), enter the password when prompted and click Connect.

    If you do not know the key, it may be written on the underside of the wireless router or base station, or in its instruction manual, or you may have to ask the person who administers the wireless network.

  6. The network icon will change appearance as the computer attempts to connect to the network.

  7. If the connection is successful, the icon will change to a dot with several curved bars above it (). More bars indicate a stronger connection to the network. Fewer bars mean the connection is weaker and might not be very reliable.

If the connection is not successful, you may be asked for your password again or it might just tell you that the connection has been disconnected. There are a number of things that could have caused this to happen. You could have entered the wrong password, the wireless signal could be too weak, or your computer’s wireless card might have a problem, for example. See 無線網路故障排除 for more help.

A stronger connection to a wireless network does not necessarily mean that you have a faster internet connection, or that you will have faster download speeds. The wireless connection connects your computer to the device which provides the internet connection (like a router or modem), but the two connections are actually different, and so will run at different speeds.
